    Our guide Muhammad took our small group of four to view the current. The viewing point is right on the edge of the waterway and it is very easy to see. The current is more pronounced during high tide. Muhammad took us to another beautiful viewpoint and gave us lots of information about the area. This was a very comfortable way to view the current.

    Sorry, the guide (taxi-driver) recommended the wrong time for this event. Therefore, we were there at flood time and there was nearly no flow at this time. (We were there again 2h later privately on our journey and there was signficant flow at this time).

    While not a cheap way to see this experience it was excellent and worth the money. If you had 2 couples it is the same price and would make it excellent value. We could pick the time to suit the tide unlike public buses or tourist buses. Our guide was a lovely man who picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel door.

    We took public transport to this experience. A bit tricky as bus stop signage is poor. Got there in the end. The maelstrom was underwhelming! I have seen so much more elsewhere (Horizontal Falls, Kimberley, Western Australia). Still may be a novel experience for some. The surrounds and bus trip were beautiful. Jillian

    Saltstraumen

    Join me for an admirable tour to Saltstraumen, the world's strongest tidal whirlpool. Considered one of the most dangerous, Saltstraumen has claimed around 60 lives in the past 60 years, with only a few bodies ever recovered. The unique geological landscape causes anything caught in the stream to be pulled down to the fjord's depths, making resurfacing nearly impossible. As we venture to this breathtaking natural phenomenon, you'll enjoy typical Norwegian snacks and learn about the rich history of Saltstraumen. Thanks to the powerful tide that prevents freezing and supports vibrant marine life, humans have inhabited Saltstraumen's banks since the Stone Age. Archaeologists have unearthed a 10,000-year-old hunting settlement here, making it one of Norway's oldest discoveries. Throughout the tour, I'll help you capture amazing photos to remember your adventure. Join me for an experience that combines breathtaking natural beauty, fascinating history.
